Why Use Choicemail?

Because it works.

Spam now accounts for about two-thirds of all email. It costs most email users at least 15 minutes a day. Research shows that spam costs companies $400-800 per mailbox every year. And these costs are growing.

Permission-based email management is the only thing that actually solves, or ever will solve, the spam problem. (To learn more, read our whitepaper.) It is 100% effective, and ChoiceMail makes it available to you now.

With ChoiceMail, you will never get another piece of unwanted email because a message can reach your inbox in one of only four ways:

Updates

Permission rules - Added two new actions. (1) Change the status of a message to BCC (which essentially stops CM sending a challenge out) and (2) Delete a message permanently, bypassing the junkbox.Administration management (CM Enterprise/Web only) - Added support for ChoiceMail Web administratorsWebmail gateway - New update addresses a number of login problems. Installation of the webmail gateway is now optional and controlled from the main installer.Transform Rules - If you modify the transform rules, it is no longer necessary to restart ChoiceMail before you can access the updated rules.

Fixes

Freeze problem - We finally tracked down a bizarre problem where CM could freeze on Windows 9x/ME systems after running for a long time. The default log size has been reduced to 30 lines.Long delay - Fixed a problem where ChoiceMail could be held up for a long time by an incoming attachment that contains no regular text.Junk box - We no longer populate the junkbox when CM starts – this prevents CM from hogging CPU cycles for long periods of time at start up.SMTP manager - Fixed another problem where a bogus email address could hold up the queue of outgoing challenges.Long download delay - Fixed a problem where a received attachment with no body text could take a long time to be processed
